Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 74.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.6.

I think this album is a masterpiece. The music perfectly encapsulates various styles from the 60s while the spoken segues provide a poignant narrative of a golden age passed.

I kinda lost track of The Coral after Bill Ryder Jones departed in 2007 however not only are they still boxing on but still releasing records and here in 2021 they give us a good old fashioned Concept Album. Ta Da !
The concept of this Concept Album roughly translates to the band recalling holidays on the West Coast of England from fun and innocence to ultimate decline through a fairly straight forward and linear telling that is interspersed with several short narrative sections throughout. Think Kinks ‘Village Green’ and you are on the right track
Reviews for this one has been mostly positive with even a couple of posters on Allmusic declaring a masterpiece. Trust me it’s far from a masterpiece with a hand full of downright stinkers here, however if you have the time to commit it’s well worth the effort

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
